Abstract: In order to disclose a structure, which performs the functions of a structured, organic, electrically conductive, transparent electrode and an orientation layer, a cost-reducing and time-saving method for producing such a structure, and uses of this structure, the invention proposes a layer on a substrate, which layer contains an organic, transparent, electrically conductive material and which has a preferred orientation, a method for producing such a layer, in which a transparent, electrically conductive layer is produced and oriented on a substrate, and a use of such a layer as a combined electrode-and orientation layer in LC displays.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a sensor component, in particular, a thin-film high-pressure sensor, as well as a sensor component, is described, in which at least one measuring element, in particular an expansion measuring strip is arranged on a membrane, and separated from the membrane through an electrically insulating film, the measuring element being arranged on an electrically insulating substrate, which is mounted in a subsequent step onto the membrane on the side that faces away from the measuring element, so that the electrically insulating substrate forms the electrically insulating film. The electrically insulating substrate performs both a carrier function during the application of the expansion measuring strip to the substrate as well as an insulation function after the mounting of the substrate onto the membrane. In this way, the application of a separate insulation film made of silicon dioxide becomes unnecessary.

Abstract: A thin-film component and a method for manufacturing it are proposed, an insulation layer (20) and a resistance layer (30) being applied on a substrate (10), the insulation layer (20) being applied in liquid form on the membrane (10).

Abstract: Heat exchanger for cooling semi-conductor components or the like equipment features cooling fins that are spaced apart, attached to and project out from a base section of extruded aluminum or another light metal, each fin being secured in a groove or the like recess in the base section. The cooling fins are in the form of a cooling-fin plates made of thin-gauge strips of material and, as viewed in longitudinal cross-section, are profiled at least in the region where they join the base section.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a gelatin-coated glass panel is described. In this, gelatin is first applied onto a glass panel, then a protective layer is sputtered on through a mask placed onto the gelatin layer. After removal of the mask, the gelatin can be removed, with the aid of a dry etching method, from the regions in which it is not equipped with a protective layer. The glass panel can then easily be divided by scoring and breaking. The method makes it possible to produce, on a large-scale production basis, liquid crystal displays which have either a color filter or a black matrix made of photoemulsion.
